Keenas Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Hi, I have a plant that is 3-5 weeks into flower outdoors. It is just a general bush strain that I found in a bag, nothing special I don't think. Anyway, I wanted to keep it small to be in the stealth side, I have succeeded and she is very healthy and well cared for. The thing is, she is in a 200mm pot currently and I am starting to think she might be root bound or very close to it. I feel to maximize yield I might was to up the pot size slightly. I am worried about stunting it given she is flowering and healthy and looks really happy. Also should I just go for a standard soil medium from bunnings that I have been using ? Currently feeding with powerfeed to vegies and supplementing with potash for potassium. Rounded out with a dose to Seasol from time to time. Can anyone share experience with re-potting during start of flower ? Should I just be really gentle and all will be OK ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louise Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 I'd need to see the plant and it's pot to say whether it needs potting up... any chance of a pic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keenas Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) Not right now, but she is in one of these http://www.bunnings.com.au/homeleisure-reko-200mm-growers-plastic-pot-black_p2945612 Edited February 26, 2015 by Keenas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teahaircut Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Go for it man, seasol for stress transplants once completed, be gentle. Did 3 of my mates females for him this week which are 4 foot tall, well into flower with 1.5" buds all round, plants are looking better than ever and have grown considerably in the last 3 days than the week prior.

growbabygrow Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Do it man. Those pots are tiny, at this stage of their life I would def say they are pot bound I took advice from others who said pot up and it was the best thing for my girl. Go to a 430 mm pot youll be glad you did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max_headroom Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) I re-potting from 410mm to 990mm pot about 3 weeks ago with no hassle. If the pot is root bound this will actually help the transplant as the root ball will stay together. It was far simpler than I thought it would be and its the best thing I have done for her. She is looking great now. If she is pot bound then do it...my girl was maybe 2 weeks into flowering when I did it. I posted a thread a few weeks ago about this and I received a blow by blow description of how to actually do it. I will try and find the thread for you and put the link up if your interested? Best of luck Edit: Link to discussion on re-potting during flowering Edited February 26, 2015 by max_headroom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
